Ancillary task - Choosing images

When looking into what images to use on my digipak, I firstly intending to go out and take photographs however, when looking through my video, I think that the shots I already have strongly sell the video.  What I wanted from the images used on my digipak is the innocence of the girl to be clear, as well as the males influence.  I want there to be mystery in the image; there's something more going on.  I intend to use these images roughly to mess around with ideas for my ancillary.  Once I have more of a clear idea on what image to use, I will use photoshop to ensure the image is clear and good quality.

The first image that I am considering to use for my digipak, is the one of the female sat on the bed, holding eye contact with the camera.  The  reason I think that this would be a good image for the front of my digipak is because of how innocent the girl is portrayed.  She appears as though she needs help.

The second picture which I wanted to use is the high angled shot of the couple on the bed.  The male has strong eye contact with the camera, which shows his power.  The woman just stares at the man, which shows her obsession with him.  This image is another contender for the front of the digipak.


I also think that this picture is a very strong image, which could be used for the front cover of the digipak as I find it quite powerful.  The strong light behind them highlights their outline.  This shows a clear image of them kissing and signifies a love.  However, the dark colouring of the shot in comparison to the light shows that there is mystery in the relationship.

The final shot I liked for the digipak is this one to the right.  It is of the males mouth breathing out smoke.  I chose this one as it is one of the other shots which can subtly reference the drug use.  I also like that it is a light on the mouth and area of smoke, against the dark background.
